Chapter 069 The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng
If Sigiriya hadn't been looking at her innocently beside her, Tarona would have turned into a screaming chicken. She almost grabbed her hair and yelled WTF to slightly express how devastated she was at the moment.
New cases are good, and they can make money, but isn’t it a bit too much to come every time?
She just wanted to copy the answers, and didn't want to copy the same answers for her colleagues every time.
How could this be?!
Is this retribution for always wanting to stir up trouble?
cried.
She summoned Xijishia to let Xijishia control Beef Soup and the others to return to the Nameless Island and wait for an opportunity. Who knew...
Tarona's gnashing teeth expression suddenly changed into a pensive look.
It's not that they can't act according to the original plan. Just from the memory of beef soup, it can be seen that Gong Jiu and Gong Sunlan's condition is completely abnormal.
Gong Jiu is undoubtedly the possessed person of the [evil eyes], as evidenced by his pink eyes which are the same as those of Flower Full House.
As for Gongsun Lan, she can create small companion creatures and use them to transform people into monsters. Gong Jiu also lets her create new large companion creatures, but she is controlled by Gong Jiu.
Well, Gongsun Lan should have the ability of [Evil Eyes], but the source of the power lies in Gong Jiu.
It's like an appliance that can only be used by plugging in. The appliance is in Gong Sunlan's possession, and the power source is in Gong Jiu's hands. Without his permission, the appliance without power is naturally just a decoration, and Gong Sunlan only has the power in vain.
However, how did this happen?
Based on Tarona's understanding of this world, Gongsun Lan, who has many extremely evil nicknames, obviously meets the criteria of [Evil Eye] for choosing a possessed person. Compared to evil, Gong Jiu is just a little bit short of it. But why is [Evil Eye] with Gong Jiu?
...Emm, could it be that Gong Jiu stole it from Gong Sunlan?
If it was when [Evil Eyes] had just entered this world and had become even weaker in the fight against the world's rejection and had no power left... Don't say it, this is very likely.
Theseus asked a question at the right time: [Even if the previous situation is consistent, how did Gong Jiu snatch the [Evil Eye] from Gong Sunlan? ]
Tarona points out the highlight: "The members with red shoes."
Although Gongsun Lan is extremely vicious, she is genuine towards her sisters. From the conversation between Beef Soup and Gong Jiu, we can conclude that Xue Bing is the only member of the Red Shoes who has not been caught.
The first place they visited was Shenzhen Villa. Their main purpose was to capture Xue Bing. Once she was captured, the red shoes were ready.
And Xue Bing is now in Baiyun City...
Wuhu, three baits, the big witch has never fought such a well-prepared battle.
"Sigiriya."
Tarona looked at the puppeteer girl standing quietly in the chaos. Her golden eyes reflected the girl's quiet figure. She asked: "I need you to go deep into the enemy and collect intelligence for me, but——"
She emphasized: "Even I cannot determine the level of abnormality at present, which means that you are likely to be in danger and I will not be able to come to your side in the first place."
The battle between the extraordinary often only takes a moment, only a microsecond, to decide the winner. Even if the speed of the [Mechanical Angel] is a little faster than the speed of light, it still takes some time for her to reach the battlefield.
Xijixia is a puppeteer. When she swallowed the devil's heart, her body was already damaged by the poison, so her physical strength is weaker than that of an ordinary magician. Gong Jiu is one of the top martial artists in this world. He also has the [Evil Eye]. Even if he can't use his ability, he still has power.
Therefore, Sigismith's journey was full of dangers and the road ahead was unknown.
At the very least, she would have to stay with Gong Jiu for a few days because there was still a known companion creature that had not been found.
There was a gleam of fierceness in Tarona's eyes. Although there was generally no interaction between companion creatures, and they fought on their own without interfering with each other before the abnormal gave orders, the companion creature that seemed to be an amphibious creature already had self-awareness, and it was very likely to look for similar creatures.
It is also an energy source, a more easily absorbed one.
The Great Witch was going to use the companion creature she had captured alive earlier to fish for the other one.
It was so difficult for the male Sun Lan to mutate into several small companion creatures, so you can imagine how difficult it would be to create a large companion creature. Maybe... that companion creature that seems to be amphibious is the last one so far.
Just from Beef Soup's memory, it is impossible to tell whether Gong Jiu knows what the large companion creature wandering outside is like. He is very good at hiding his emotions. Even Beef Soup cannot fully understand her brother Jiu. Most of the time, she is the one who obeys orders.
But no matter whether Gong Jiu knew it or not, the companion creature that seemed to be amphibious could not be kept. The fact that it could endure for so long without showing up showed how dangerous the companion creature with self-awareness was.
Without killing it, Tarona could not leave Feixian Island with peace of mind.
However, the companion creature sealed in the music box can be kept for a while. What if Gong Jiu runs away with Gong Sunlan? It still has value as a compass.
Xijishiya listened quietly, then smiled and curved her eyes. When she spoke, it was the sound of beef soup - her vocal cords had been destroyed by the poison that her parents had fed her.
"Your will is at my command, Master."
The beautiful princess playfully stuck out her tongue at the golden angel. There was a dark devil's eye on the tip of her tongue. Her spider-web-shaped eyes were full of trust: "You won't let me die a second time, right?"
The first time, she died at the hands of her parents.
The second time...
The angel walked up to her, half-knelt down, and looked at her tenderly with his eyes hiding the sun.
He said it, and He promised it.
"There will be no second death, Sigismiya."
You trust me, just as I trust you.
If you are loyal to me, I will protect you forever.
Just as summoned.
Just as the call said.
…
Tarona obtained clues that were almost equivalent to the final answer, and Baiyun City also received new clues the day after she left.
The envoy of the Southern King came to visit the Lord of Baiyun City.
The young eunuch who came on orders was just like his godfather who screamed and fainted as soon as he stepped into Feixian Island. He could not hide the arrogance between his brows. Although he bowed to Ye Gucheng while holding the letter from King Nan, he looked down on this man who had no official position in his heart.
So what if he is the mayor of Baiyun City?
So what if the White Cloud Sword Immortal is famous throughout the world?
He is just a commoner, a ruffian. He should be grateful that the prince is willing to treat him with courtesy.
Since my godfather was suffering from acclimatization, this important task fell on him. As long as he could do it well...
A smug smile appeared on the young eunuch's face, as if he saw a bright future in which the prince would reward him with new gold and jewelry.
Who knew that Ye Gucheng just glanced at the contents of the letter calmly, then put the letter back, and looked up at him with the same cold eyes as before: "Go back and tell King Nan that even if a tall building is built, you must be careful that it will eventually be just a dream. He doesn't need to worry about the affairs of my Baiyun City. Ru Xing, see him off."
He handed the letter to the maid named Ru Xing beside him as if throwing away a handkerchief that had been used to clean his hands.
Ru Xing also handed the secret letter written by the prince of the current dynasty back to the eunuch with a cold face, just like receiving a useless handkerchief. The voice that came out of her mouth was so cold that the eunuch was furious: "Please, eunuch."
When had the young eunuch ever been treated so coldly? He was the most capable eunuch beside the Prince of the South. In the past, all the officials who came to the palace to pay homage to the prince had to show him some courtesy.
Just a gangster!
His face, which was too pale, trembled, and the pretended kindness quickly disappeared. A slightly shrill voice came out of his throat, which was quite sinister: "Don't worry, City Lord Ye, I will report your words to the prince exactly as you said!"
Ye Gucheng didn't even look at him, just concentrated on solving the chess game in front of him.
This was his last game with the Angel. This was the tenth time he had cracked the game, but he still stopped at the 44th move.
Ru Xing has already withdrawn.
She looked into the young eunuch's eyes half-way as if to see him off and half-way as a threat. The young eunuch, who was about to say something harsh, was frightened by her cold eyes, and the harsh words got stuck in his throat. His legs felt weak as he walked out of the City Lord's Mansion.
The people in this city were different from anyone he had ever seen before.
They are gangsters, and gangsters are willing to kill without blinking an eye.
Besides, this is the sea, and it is normal for a few people to die.
The young eunuch realized belatedly that he was terrified. He returned to the inn almost trembling, tightly clutching the secret letter that was worthless in the eyes of the Lord of Baiyun City. When he returned to his room, he collapsed against the door, gasping for breath, as if he had survived a disaster.
Walk!
They need to get out of here as soon as possible!
Go back... He wants to go back and tell the prince!
The people of this city really didn't take them seriously, so what about the envoys of the Southern King? Baiyun City only knew the Lord of Baiyun City, and they didn't care even if it was the current emperor.
If they dared to disrespect the city lord, they would not be able to leave safely if the people of this city knew about it.
Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou were not in the City Lord's Mansion at the moment. The only unconscious Xue Bing was the only guest in the mansion. They went to investigate those who had suddenly screamed and fainted like Xue Bing.
Even though these people had fallen into a coma, they were still crying out in pain and twitching from time to time, as if they were dragged into a nightmare from which they could not escape by some force.
Hua Manlou and Ye Gucheng both roughly guessed the reason.
Hua Man Lou didn't say anything because he hadn't figured out how to tell Lu Xiaofeng about Xue Bing. He could see that his playboy friend had already given his true heart to Xue Bing.
Xue Bing likes Lu Xiaofeng, so why shouldn't Lu Xiaofeng like her?
If Lu Xiaofeng knew that Xue Bing killed an innocent person, how would he deal with it and how would he treat this relationship?
Ye Gucheng didn't say anything because it was his personality.
He admired Lu Xiaofeng, and like Lu Xiaofeng, for the first time in his life he wanted to make friends with someone.
Xue Bing's matter, after all, was their private matter. Even if he and Lu Xiaofeng became friends as they wished, he would not interfere in his friend's private affairs.
Let them solve it themselves. When it comes to emotional matters, everyone except them is an outsider.
Ye Gucheng played another game, and as expected, he still couldn't break the deadlock and even stopped at the 44th move again.
Forty-four...
Ye Gucheng twirled the chess pieces on his fingertips, his eyes dark.
What was the angel trying to warn him about?
No wonder he thought so much, he had not thought of this point before, until the secret letter from King Nan arrived today, he was suddenly shocked.
That letter was a letter of apprenticeship written by the King of the South for his son. The first half contained nothing but some nice flattering words, but the second half revealed the real intention.
The Southern King knew the biggest secret of the Ye family.
The Ye family has royal blood from the previous dynasty.
Although they were only blood relatives, there was no emperor who was not suspicious. The Ye family moved away from the Central Plains and settled on the sea, which also meant they wanted to stay away from the chaos of successive dynasties.
There had been no trouble for nearly two hundred years, and the Ye family had gradually forgotten about the bloodline of the previous dynasty and focused on managing their own land. Who would have thought that until today, there were still people who knew about this and would use this secret to take away the Ye family.
There was no mention of this in the secret letter, but Ye Gucheng had already seen through the Southern King's true intention - he wanted to rebel, so he used this secret to make himself the sharpest knife in his hand.
Oh.
Ye Gucheng sneered silently, and the chess pieces twisted at his fingertips were crushed into powder by the sudden surge of internal force, and sparsely fell on the chessboard.
If it were in the past, he would have accepted this request not for anything else, but only so that the people of Baiyun City who had supported his Ye family for generations could continue to live in peace.
But now...
Ye Gucheng thought of the angel's promise, and also of the sudden mention in the secret letter from Prince Nan that Baiyun City was rich as clouds.
He once again rearranged the black and white chess pieces, picked up the black chess pieces, and never tired of cracking the chess game that was impossible for his players to crack.
Angels look down upon the world, and sins are exposed. Those who willingly associate with the evil spirits will be punished by having their hearts burned by the scorching sun.
All you need is -
To watch him build a tall building, to watch him... all his plans were in vain, but it was all in vain.
